[PATCH v7] net: airoha: npu: use aligned streaming DMA for mailbox messages

On EN7581 + MT7996 (Gemtek W1700K), mapping small caller buffers with
DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL regresses NPU version probe: the mailbox completes
successfully but WLAN_FUNC_GET_WAIT_NPU_VERSION reads as 0.0 instead of
0.1111.

Bounce mailbox traffic through a per-core cacheline-aligned buffer
allocated at probe. Map ALIGN(len, SMP_CACHE_BYTES) with
DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL while programming the original payload length into the
mailbox length register. Copy the reply only after dma_unmap_single() so
the CPU sees the NPU-written payload on non-coherent DMA.

Introduce __airoha_npu_send_msg() with an optional reply pointer so GET
callers can copy the trailing response payload once. Keep
airoha_npu_send_msg() as a wrapper that copies the full response back
into the caller buffer, matching the old bidirectional mapping.

Tested on Quantum Fiber / Gemtek W1700K (EN7581 + MT7996), kernel
6.18.44, including two cold reboots and sustained WiFi use.
